There must be a really good reason why amplifiers don't use on-board
switching supplies to get the weight and size down even further. An awful
lot of folks are using rigs powered by switchers which are obviously quiet
enough. Ameritron is an exception, but it's still outboard.
Perhaps an Elecraft amplifier would be good for dxpeditioners just as is the
K3, ie concentration on light weight and performance.
